Anti-Rattle Devise To Eliminate Play For A Yakima Double Down Bike Rack  

Question:

I am looking for an antirattle m12 threaded pin with a lock to fit my 2in receiver. This is for my Yakima double down but all 8 can find is 1/2 inch but clearly the bolt on mine is metric. Do you have an alternative that might work?

Expert Reply:

The Yakima DoubleDown bike rack comes with a hitch bolt when tightened should help with the play between the bike rack shank and the inside of the hitch receiver. The Yakima Double Down Bike Rack has a unique thread pattern so I will not be able to find you an alternative.

The Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 will be a great choice though to help with your predicament. This piece will hold the bike rack shank even tighter to the hitch receiver. If you lost your pin I would also recommend The Lock # Y07235 and Replacement Hardware For Yakima Double Down # Y8890206.

Because the shank of any accessory has to be slightly smaller for it to attach to the hitch there will always be some play but the item mentioned above will help.

I attached a review video link below.
